text: Science's 8 Greatest Unsolved Mysteries: Progress Report In the year 2000, PM asked how eight of the most profound questions in science might (optimistically) be answered before the dawn of the 22nd century. So where are we now, a decade later? Here's the skinny on some of science's greatest mysteriesfrom attaining immortality and the search for alien life to traveling through time. By Adam Hadhazy Return to Gallery Return to Gallery Return to Gallery Return to Gallery 3 of 10 Can We Achieve Immortality? Common sense tells us that everything dies. But rather than face that dark truth, humankind continues to believe in mythological sources of infinite life: The quest for the fountain of youth has generated more hype (and quixotic expeditions) than perhaps any other realm of science and medicine. Yet serious research continues into the life-extending properties of a host of compounds, including resveratrol (a substance found in grapes), rapamycin (derived from an Easter Island bacterium) and proteins made by the gene p21. These proteins inhibit other proteins in cells known to lead to amyloid plaque formation, which is implicated in Alzheimer's, and that promote cancer development. Senex Biotechnology, a company PM first reported on in 2000, has drugs in development that work in much the same way. Research also continues on an enzyme called telomerase, which slows the shortening of telomeressequences of DNA that grow progressively shorter during cell division until the cell eventually mutates or dies. In theory, stop this countdown and cells should live indefinitely. (The 2009 Nobel Prize in Medicine went to the discoverers of how telomeres and telomerase work.) Recent findings allude to telomerase's promise: As reported in the journal Nature in November, mice stripped of and then re-exposed to telomerase showed dramatic signs of reverse aging. Nutritional supplementswhich do not require Food and Drug Administration approvalbased on boosting telomerase levels became available a few years ago but have yet to be clinically evaluated. Meanwhile, the results from human trials of two new compounds called synthetic activators of SIRT1 (STACs) will be released this year. These drugs seem to mimic the benefits of caloric restrictionwhich slows metabolism and produces age-delaying effects in every species tested, from yeast to primates, according to David Sinclair, a pathologist at Harvard Medical School. But Jay Olshansky, a professor of epidemiology at the School of Public Health at the University of Illinois at Chicago, doesn't think a cure for aging will come from a drug. "Resveratrol, telomerase, p21all for the most part have fallen flat on their face," he says. "In the last 10 years, there hasn't been an intervention that slows aging in humans." Olshansky instead believes the genes of centenarianspeople who reach the century markhold the key to arresting the aging process. The New England Centenarian Study (NECS), the largest study of the superannuated on the planet, is presently keeping tabs on some 1600 centenarians and hundreds of their similarly spry children. "The reason it is so exciting is that we don't have to jump species to see results," Olshanksy, who isn't involved in the study, says. "We don't have to make the huge theoretical leap that if people could act like mice, they could live to 150. Another way of saying it is: The secret, if there is one, is already walking among us." Ultimately, the fountain of youth of might not be chemical or biological but technological. Futurist Ray Kurzweil has prophesied the rise of nanotechnology as the means to immortality, enabled by tiny robots zipping through our bodies repairing damaged organs and tissues. Kurzweil wagers that anyone alive by midcentury has a good shot at never dying.

Jessie Ware's elegantly smooth debut album Devotion is one of the great surprises of 2012, and she's starting to look just as assured onscreen as she sounds on record. Her new video for the album track "Night Light" pushes the track's British-soul vibe even deeper into the the early '90s, giving a glamorous high-contrast black-and-white sheen to everyone involved. It's like something David Fincher would've put together for Madonna in 1993. Chris Sweeney directs, and Ware's boyfriend and sister both make appearances. Watch it below.
Devotion is out now on PMR.

Gear Question
I'm 5'6''-ish and 140-ish and i want a...
I'm 5'6''-ish and 140-ish and i want a park board that can still handle some back country when i want a change of pace. I'm looking for a board $350 or under. Any suggestions?
Andrew Dunaenko
I think you would find exactly what your looking for in the Rome SDS Garage Rocker 154cm. The best thing about the rocker technology is that it was made for making it easier to do butter tricks and manuels and all that jazz. However with that arch in the middle of the board, the nose stays above the powder without you working your legs by putting all your weight on the back foot.
Wooden Robots
You should check out the Forum Scallywag; http://www.dogfunk.com/forum-scallywag-snowboard This board is awesome. It is a great park board but will still hang in the backcountry. It comes in 3 sizes, a 151, 155, and 158. The 151 is your size for sure. This board has reverse camber tech, it is called chillydog but it also has "pop" This is a thicker section of the board right outside the bindings that will still allow you to pop higher and better off of rails and boxes.

I'm going to take a break from quoting "Powers That Be" in order to share my latest personal documents digitization project:
I think the whole of this slightly post Vietnam era Army-issued guide for soldiers is worth reading and emulating, but no part as worthy as this page:
If you can't make out my cheap digital copy, here's the text (emphasis mine):
BUT .. never use threats, torture, or other forms of coercion to get information. An enemy captive is required to give only his name, rank, service number and date of birth. Combat experience has proven that useful information has been gained from captives who have been treated humanely, while information gathered through torture or coercion is unreliable.
Attacks upon the personal dignity of any captive or detainee, such as humiliating or degrading treatment, are strictly forbidden by the law of war.
We used to know better. Now our high officials talk of "quaint treaties" and the need to do the "hard things." This isn't progress. It's heartbreaking AND counterproductive.
[Note: If you choose "all sizes" on the Flickr page and print out the largest picture, the text should be easily readable except for the inside front cover. The entire set of pages is on Flickr.]
We used to be dealing with the armed forces of countries not religous fanatics answerable to no one.
Yes this type of treatment of prisoners can be characterized as heartbreaking, within the context of enemy combatants as soldiers, not cowardly murderers unwilling to extend Geneva conventions on their own behalf. But your second conclusion here, that this is counterproductive is unfounded. Unless of course you are privy to information otherwise unknown to Americans. And therein lies the dilemma for those using secrecy/coercion, (that would be Bush et al.) in justifying the use of such means. Their methods preclude making the public aware of their success. What we as Americans can deduce is that we have not been hit with a major act of terrorism since 9/11. So,we may never know how many innocent American lives may have been saved using such means. Speaking for myself and family, and refusing to establish a moral equivalent with Islamic fascists, Lenin had it right. The ends justify the means.
I think on the whole, torture and/or intimidation is probably not a good thing; however, what if there was a nuke set to explode in Chicago or Niave, Alaska and we captured one of the terrorists. What if conventional interrogation wasn't working? Do you let Naive, Alaska or Wrigley Field get nuked?
The Defense Department also had pamphlets telling soldiers not to get VD. We didn't have soldiers with the VD after those things came out.
Greg, I thought a lot about what to say to this. I'll let someone far wiser than me respond:"Your worldview is there for your comfort, to make you feel brave in demanding action, or secure in the idea that your government is competent, or noble in pursuit of higher ideals of patriotism or freedom."I hope your fantasy-world is a pleasing one and that reality, with its liberal bias, never, EVER, intrudes. Back to sleep, good sheep.
What if the world really is an episode of "24"? What then?By the way, I hear that the FBI and local police departments are taking their law enforcement cues from "Starsky and Hutch" and "S.W.A.T." Look for handlebar mustahces and white-dude afros to win the Global War on the Brown.
If I was secure in the idea that anyone was competent, let alone the government, I wouldn't have created SHUSH and would have left the world's troubles to someone else.
9/11 sounded like the plot to a bad tv show (box cutters, terrorists and airliners); however, I believe there are a couple of buildings missing in NYC. Suicide bombers blowing themselves up in pizza parlors also sounds like something from a movie.
It sounds like you don't think these scenarios are within the realm of possibility or probablity. Good thing chuck is not in charge of anything.
Both the CIA and mlitary intelligence warned against Islamist terrorists using hijacked airplanes as cruise missles. It even made it into the presidential daily briefing in August of 2001.What you are talking about is the prospect of a terrorist who knows the location of a WMD about to go off somewhere very, very bad and several gruffly handsome intelligence agents in $800 suglasses torturing him to save God, America, Fox News and the adolescent part of the male brain that makes this seem remotely possible or helpful.Nice that you conflated the two. Neat trick. Didn't you remember that we READ for a living?You just gave me a check mark in the first square of Idiot Talking Point Tatics Bingo.Cheers!
But Chuck the fact still remains that you cannot say with any degree of certainty that coercion, since 9/11, has not been a successful tool for thwarting planned terrorist acts. We can agree on this?
Hi Tomeboy,I meant to make this part of a longer response tomorrow, but since you brought it up for the second time:"But Chuck the fact still remains that you cannot say with any degree of certainty that coercion, since 9/11, has not been a successful tool for thwarting planned terrorist acts. We can agree on this?"The lack of attacks on US soil from 9/11 to the present is *almost* as long as the time from the Oklahoma City attack of 1995 to the 9/11 attacks. By the logic of "no attacks means successful policy", then Clinton's anti-terror policy produced the same results as the President's. Only without spending $450 Billion and killing 10s of thousands.Or perhaps you want to argue that terrrorists only wanted to kill us since 9/11? I'm not making that argument by the way.
Another measure of the President's policy to reduce terrorism globally would seem to be reducing or holding steady the number of global fatalities from terror incidents. At least that is what is implied by constant Administration assertions that we are building a safer world.The Terrorism Knowledge Base http://www.tkb.org has records of terrorist fatalities back to 1968. And they tell a grim story - for the current Administration. From January 1, 1968 to December 1, 2001, 17,062 people had their lives snuffed out by terrorists -- approximately 3,000 of those just on 9/11.But since 9/11 and the Global War on Terror, $450 Billion later and over 30,000 people killed by our direct actions in Iraq to this date 24,240 people have been killed by terrorists. Think about that -- more people have been killed by terrorists in the last five years than in the prior 33 years.Those kind of results aren't worth throwing out our Christian values or traditional notions of human rights for. Even if the ends justified the means, the President's means are not achieving their ends.
Greg,We've been fighting terrorists blended with civillian operations a long time. The rule book I digitized is dated 1977, here are some things that happened in the 1960s, according to the Facts on File World News Digest, a product that belongs in every school:Citation: "Vietnamese War: Terror Attacks." Facts On File World News Digest, 26 January 1966. FACTS.com. Facts On File News Services. Juneau Public Library, Juneau, AK.Viet Cong terrorists stepped up their attacks against civilians and military personnel in Saigon and in other parts of South Vietnam.Among incidents reported:
Then there'sCitation: "Vietnamese War: Terrorism." Facts On File World News Digest, 2 March 1966. FACTS.com. Facts On File News Services. Juneau Public Library, Juneau, Alaska.
Dealing with terrorists isn't something that happened after 9/11 or even after the 1983 Lebanon bombing. We didn't formally throw out the human rights rule book then, and the President and his advisors shouldn't have thrown it out now.
Hi Tomeboy,First, let me thank you for being the only person on the pro-coercion, pro-prisoner mistreatment side who has written so far who did more than just toss cliches at me. It is appreciated.I have dealt elsewhere in comments with why I don't believe the lack of terror attacks on US soil since 9/11 can be considered proof of the efficacy of the administration's interrogation methods.My main claim for why "threats, torture, or other forms of coercion" and "Attacks upon the personal dignity of any captive or detainee, such as humiliating or degrading treatment" are counter productive is based on a reading of history, and not of current classified information (if such exists!). The Army staff didn't believe in it or they wouldn't have wrote in a manual back in 1977. Further history is replete with examples of the ineffectiveness of torture and other forms of coercion and mistreatment.The examples below are drawn from this paper, presented at a military ethics conference:http://www.usafa.af.mil/jscope/JSCOPE03/Arrigo03.h tmlA Consequentialist Argument against Torture Interrogation of TerroristsJean Maria Arrigo, Ph.D.Joint Services Conference on Professional EthicsJanuary 30-31, 2003, Springfield, Virginia
In addition to the historical worthlessness of torture, there is also to problem of what systematic mistreatment interrogations does to the people carrying it out:
Training programs have been studied through interviews with former torturers in Greece,[54] Argentina, Brazil, Chile, and Uruguay,[55] Nicaragua,[56] and Israel,[57] to name a few. As a composite picture, trainees are typically selected on the basis of their ability to endure hardship and pain, for correct political beliefs, trustworthiness, and obedience. Often the young, the lower class, or the poorly educated are recruited, or even kidnapped. Brutal training at the outset desensitizes trainees to their own pain, suffering, and humiliation. Confinement and initiation rites isolate them from prior relationships. Constant physical and psychological intimidation instill obedience. Trainees first learn torture through social modeling in witness and guard roles. They usually experience tension between their new roles and their previous values, and they variously resort to denial, psychological dissociation, alcohol, or drugs. The efficacy of shame tactics tends to lead, as with the Israeli General Security Services treatment of Palestinians, to sexual tortures, which in turn contribute to stigmatization and corruption of torturers. Training programs use dehumanization and scapegoating of victims to relieve the bad self-image experienced by many torturers.
If the techniques used by the administration didn't work in the past, they're likely not working now. And they've cost us so much in honor and integrity they are doubly not worth it.
And you really believe that none of the supposed torture stories that have occurred in the past 3-4 years did not also occur back then? I have no doubt that with less technology and less oversight to record what you would consider torture, not only did it happen, it happened more often and possibly into realms that I myself would consider torture. Amazing how much faith you put in that little book.
I'm sure it did. It was wrong then and it's wrong now.
Of course things happened. But back then our ideal and formal regulation was to avoid coercive mistreatment. Now our formal rules enshrine it. That's what's wrong. That's what our armed services tried to tell us back in 2003. We should have listened.
Hey, Greg! When ARE you going to enlist? I've seen your pic over in Shush World or whatever it is and you look fairly healthy to me. Get with it and enlist! We need you over there!
So you agree with old V.I.! I always knew you were a closet Leninist! What next? Free sex??

OS X 10.10, better known as Yosemite, represents the next-generation in Apple's desktop operating system. Yosemite brings a new look to the desktop experience, and also ties OS X and iOS together through a feature called Continuity that I bet will make work a lot easier for Apple users. Currently available as a preview, Yosemite is expected to be released later this year.
As with any big change, customers will wonder if their older hardware will be supported. We recently received this question from a reader named Steve:
Q: I'm excited to check out OS X Yosemite once it launches, the redesigned interface looks great! My MacBook Air is from 2010, and I was curious if you knew if it would run Yosemite without any issues, or if I have to upgrade my computer?
A: I agree — I think the look and feel of OS X Yosemite is a breath of fresh air. I've been using the Developer Preview since it was made available at WWDC 2014, and when I use a Mac that is running Mavericks or earlier, it already feels like a big step backwards from a design perspective.
Now, on to system requirements! The nice thing about Yosemite is that Apple hasn't changed any of the system requirements from what was required to run Mavericks. In other words, all Macintosh products capable of running OS X Mavericks will be supported by Yosemite; as with Mavericks, 2 GB of RAM, 8 GB of available storage, and OS X 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard) or later are required to upgrade. To make it easier to figure out if you're specific Mac is compatible, here is a listing of all the Apple hardware that is Yosemite-capable:
How Cortana made the leap from Halo to Windows Phone
- iMac Mid-2007 or newer
- MacBook (13-inch Aluminum, Late 2008), (13-inch, Early 2009 or later)
- MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid-2009 or later), (15-inch, Mid/Late 2007 or later), (17-inch, Late 2007 or later)
- MacBook Air (Late 2008 or later)
- Mac Mini (Early 2009 or later)
- Mac Pro (Early 2008 or later)
- Xserve (Early 2009)
As you can see, anyone who has bought a Mac within the past five years is covered and will be able to run OS X Yosemite. Mac Pro, MacBook Air, and MacBook aluminum buyers as far back as 2008 are also good. In fact, some MacBook Pro and iMac buyers from back in 2007 can even get in on the Yosemite action, and those computers are now 7 years old! This is a pretty large blanket of Mac users that will be able to enjoy the next generation of OS X, and I comment Apple for including as many Macs as it did.
OS X 10.10 Yosemite is set to launch later this fall, and will be available exclusively on the Mac App Store. At WWDC, Apple announced that it will be made available completely free to its users. Can't beat that!

Last night, the story broke that former "Single Ladies" star Stacey Dash was rushed to a hospital in Los Angeles for an unknown reason.
Now a representative for Dash says the starlet was hospitalized due to a bad meal she ate on Sunday evening, which had since forced her to regurgitate anything she attempted ingest.
Dash has been released from the hospital, and is currently home trying to regain her strength after a couple hours of being attached to an IV and receiving medication.

If the Terravision queue is long, head for the SIT coach and buy a ticket from the driver. (Terravision's buses run slightly more often than SIT's do, but if a SIT coach is waiting and you haven't prebooked with Terravision, riding SIT to or from Termini Station will help you avoid the crowd.) ShuttlesViator, our booking partner for transfers and sightseeing tours, offers airport to hotel and hotel to airport transfers in shared 8-passenger vans. (However, unless you're traveling alone, a taxi is likely to offer better value.) TaxisBy law, taxis charge a flat rate of €30 for the trip between Ciampino Airport and central Rome within the Aurelian Wall. The flat fare applies to travel in either direction.

Elements Of Particle Size Analysis Using Test Sieves
Particle size Analysis using test sieves entails the passing of particles through screens (sieves) of ever decreasing size. To effectively conduct sieve testing operations beyond the simplest manual sieve test, several components are needed.
The basic element is the test sieve. Because of its normal construction, the tolerance of the sieve openings from one sieve to another of the same stated size becomes an important detail. ASTMand ISO provide standardsdealing with test sieve construction and acceptable variations of sieve openings. These openings range in size from 5" down to 20µ.
Watch this video to see how some of these sizes compare to every day items.
To facilitate the movement of particles through a group ( known as a stack) of sieves, vertical and horizontal motion is imparted to the test sample, a machine known as a sieve shaker is employed. These shakers have simple mechanisms and are used for common materials. For materials that have problems of agglomeration, other more violent forces are needed such as tapping. When smaller particles, for example in the 20µ. to 50µ micron range, need to be passed through a sieve other techniques are needed. These include vacuum assisted methods and ultra-sonic means.
The final step in particle size analysis using test sieves is the determination of the amount of test material remaining on each sieve in the stack. This is done by weighing each sieve and subtracting the empty sieve weight or by removing the material from each sieve and weighing it. This process has always been tedious. Several schemes are used to speed up this final process. Check out the CSC Solution.
The last step in the process is the cleaning of residue left in the sieves after completing a sieve analysis test. The cleaning procedures span a range from brushing out the mesh to using ultra-sonic cleaners.
We provide products to accomplish each of these tasks. Check out our sieve and sieve shaker offerings, as well as our accessory equipment. To Order on-line and see the full listing of sieve testing equipment Click on the button for the Particle Size Department of our on line store.

I need ideas! My neighbor keeps dropping off zucchini everyday, atleast 2 or 3. I know 3 ways to make it. Fried,(my favorite), bread, or jam. I am looking for something different. Any suggestions? plmk |

Grate them into an omelette or frittata or a quiche mixture. I like them raw, grated up with grated carrot as a salad, or tossed into a mixed salad, or on a sandwich. Use them sliced, like cucumber in any salad, or in chunks or slices like cucumber for pickles. They make very nice Bread and Butter Pickles. Slice them into slivers or chop into chunks if preferred, and add to any stirfry or Asian meal. I like them baked, whole. Savoury Zucchini Slice Combine all ingredients, pour into a well-greased lamington tin and bake at 180°C for 30-40 minutes until golden. Stuffed Zucchini (3) Preheat oven to 200°C. Slice zucchini into 3-4cm logs. In a saucepan filled with lightly salted boiling water, cook zucchini pieces for 5 minutes. Rinse under cold water and drain. Scoop out pulp, leaving 3-5mm on the bottom. Chop pulp and set aside. In a frypan, melt butter and cook zucchini pulp along with garlic, shallots and diced tomatoes until liquid has completely evaporated. Season with salt and pepper and sprinkle with parmesan cheese. Stuff each zucchini tambourine with filling and heat in oven for 5 minutes and serve. Onion and Zucchini Flan Finely grate zucchini and carrot together. Combine these with diced onion, eggs and oil. Sift flour then fold into egg mixture. Mix in the grated parmesan and cheddar cheeses. Season to taste. Pour mixture into a greased 23cm flan dish. Arrange rings over the top of the flan. Bake at 180°C for 40 minutes or until set and golden brown. Serve with a crisp green salad. Crisp Buttered Zucchini Melt butter in frypan. Add remaining ingredients, cover and cook over medium heat 8-10 minutes, stirring once. Zucchini and Chocolate Loaf Cake Grease a loaf pan and line the base with greased paper. Preheat oven to 180°C. Cream 90g butter, rind and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in sifted dry ingredients, milk, zucchini and nuts. Spread into prepared tin and bake for 45 minutes. Stand for 3 minutes before turning onto a wire rack to cool completely. Beat extra butter and extra orange rind until smooth, beat in the icing sugar and juice until just spreadable, and use to frost the cake. Zucchini Carrot Pikelets Cook shallots, carrot and zucchini in a non-stick pan for 5 minutes or until shallots are soft. Cool. Sift flours into a bowl, stir in the sugar, milk, egg white and shallot mixture. Drop tablespoons of mixture onto a heated non-stick pan, cook until bubbles appear. Turn and brown on the other side. Spread lightly with margarine before serving. Pikelets may be prepared 3 hours before serving, if necessary. Zucchini Fritters Sift the flours together, blend in the zucchini, parsley, onions and cayenne. Gradually blend in the combined water and egg to form a firm batter. Heat oil in a frypan. Add a spoonful of the zucchini mixture to the oil at a time. Fry for 2-3 minutes each side or until crisp and cooked through. Drain on kitchen paper. Serve hot with lemon or chilli sauce. Zucchini Mustard Pickles Put zucchini and onions in a saucepan with half the vinegar. Boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer for 30 minutes. Mix turmeric, mustard, curry powder and salt into a smooth paste with remaining vinegar and add to zucchini. Stir until the mixture boils and thickens, then simmer uncovered for 5 minutes. Pour into hot sterilised jars and seal. Zucchini Pie Slice zucchini lengthwise, remove seeds then slice crosswise. Place zucchini in small amount of boiling water, simmer for a few minutes until tender crisp. Drain well and cool. Add remaining ingredients; mix well, place in an unbaked pie shell. Topping: Mix together well. Sprinkle on top of zucchini filling. Bake at 180°C for 1 hour. Impossible Quiche Combine all ingredients, mix well. Pour mixture into a lightly buttered slab tin. Bake at 180C for 40-45 minutes. Serves 6. Vary the vegetables as desired - try tomatoes, carrots, capsicum, cabbage, spinach, corn etc. Use ham instead of bacon. [This recipe is so easy, even the Village Idiot could do it with one arm tied behind his back, and blindfolded!! Well, practically! I toss everything into the food processor, eggs, veges, the works, and that makes it very quick, too! I use frozen veges, or leftovers, whatever I have on hand.] |

This is great! I can't believe you can do so much with a zucchini. I am so glad I posted this question.....My neighbor just pulled up in the drive and yep he has a bag in his hand. What do ya wanna bet......ZUCCHINI! |
I made a batch of zucchini relish this weekend. We use it just like pickle relish - on hotdogs or hamburgers, in ham salad, tartar sauce, etc. It looked pretty sitting on the counter so I took a picture of it (that's ketchup on the left). ZUCCHINI RELISH 2 1/ 2 cups finely chopped zucchini In a bowl, combine, the zucchini, onion, green pepper and salt; cover and refrigerate overnight. (Do not eliminate or shorten this step.) Rinse and drain well; squeeze as much liquid as possible out of vegetables with your hands; set aside. In a saucepan, combine sugar, vinegar, celery seed, mustard and tumeric; bring to a boil. Add vegetable mixture; return to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, for 15 to 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until majority of liquid has evaporated. Combine cornstarch and water until smooth; stir into saucepan. Simmer 6-8 minutes longer, stirring often. Cool. Store, covered, in refrigerator. Makes about 2 cups. |

That relish look's great! I hope to try that recipe. Zucchini chocolate chip cookies! Gonna make those up for a luncheon and see if anyone knows the difference. I think I will make up a batch tomorrow and send them to my nephews ball practice. Let's see if the kids can tell! |
I have a simple grilled recipe. As soon as we spread out the coals, I put them on the grill whole. Cook them until just be fore they start to look over done. Take them inside and cube them, then set in a strainer for a few minutes. In a small pan saute butter (or olive oil), garlic, and rosemary. Toss in zuchini and serve. I also will substitute zuchini for any kind of eggplant recipe. |

Here are two tried and true recipes: Zucchini Bread 2 cups flour Stir together the flour, soda, salt, baking powder and cinnamon on wax paper. Combine eggs, oil, sugar, zucchini, and vanilla in a large mixing bowl, beat until well mixed. Stir in the flour mixture until smooth. Stir in raisins and nuts. Pour into a greased 13x9x2" pan. Bake at 350F for 40 minutes or until center springs back when pressed with a finger. Cool in pan on a wire rack. Source: a friend, Suzette McHugh Zucchini and Mushroom Enchiladas 2 TB olive or canola oil Saute mushrooms and onion in oil until juices evaporate (3-5 minutes). Add zucchini, jalapeno peppers, scallions, green chilies and oregano. Salt and pepper to taste. Raise heat to high and cook, stirring constantly for about 3 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside until ready to assemble the enchiladas. Soften the tortillas in the microwave or in a heavy frypan over low heat or on a cast iron griddle. Put about 1/2 cup sauce in the bottom of a greased baking dish. Spoon 1/4 to 1/3 cup vegetable mixture in each softened tortilla and roll up. Place rolled tortillas in sauce seam side down. Pour rest of sauce over and top with grated cheese. Bake at 350F 15-20 minutes until cheese is melted and sauce is bubbling. Serves 4-6. Individual servings can be made in the microwave: put 2 TB or more sauce in a small microwave plate or baking dish; fill and roll two tortillas and place seam side down in sauce; spoon more sauce over top of tortillas; sprinkle with 1 TB or more cheese. Cook on High for 3 minutes. my notes: I made half the recipe and did not add the can of chilies or the scallions; there was enough filling for about 6 tortillas or two meals for me; I used my homemade from the freezer enchilada sauce.

If you really get overwhelmed, you can freeze zucchini for use in the winter time rather than pay a wacko price for what you got free all summer! |

Carl Goh's Zucchini Bread This recipe is from James Beard's Bread Book 3 eggs 2 c sugar 1 c oil 2 c grated zucchini, peeled if skin is tough 3 tsp vanilla 3 c flour 1 tsp salt 1 tsp baking soda 1/4 tsp baking powder 3 tsp cinnamon Beat eggs till foamy; add sugar, oil, zucchini and vanilla and mix thoroughly but lightly. Combine the dry ingredients and add, stirring just until blended. Grease two loaf pans and pour in batter. Bake at 350 for 1 hour. Bread is done when it pulls away from the sides of the pan. This recipe is almost identical to my zucchini cake recipe; it has Philadelphia Cream Cheese frosting on it and tastes quite like a really great carrot cake. |

Zucchini Marmalade 6 cups Zucchini Shredded Fine 1 20oz. can Pineapple 6 cups sugar 1/4 cup Lemon Juice 2 pkgs Apricot or Peach Jello Cook the zucchini for six minutes. Do not add any water. Stirring constantly. Mix all ingredients togethr, except for jello and cook for two minutes. REmove from stove and add jello. Keep in the refrigerator. Makes 5 pints |
I love them in quesadillas with mushrooms and cheese. You can add just about any veggies and they are great! I just spray pam cooking spray or a little bit of oil, throw in a tortilla, add veggies and cheese throw a tortilla on top and flip it after a few minutes. |

For a side dish that even my husband will eat-- In a skillet putin a little butter, slice a small zucchini, a small onion, and a small green pepper. Saute until nearly done, we like it to still be crunchy. Then add a chopped tomato and a slice of cheese. Put the lid on until the cheese melts. This does not take long to make and we love it. Salt to taste. |
A friend recently shared a recipe that even my zucchini hating husband likes- Shredded Zucchini with Lemon juice, Lemon Zest, Fresh Basil and tossed with Parmesan cheese. Shred the zucchini- I use my food processor, then steam in the microwave for one-two minutes. Take it out and add the zest of one lemon, lemon juice to taste, a couple of leaves of basil chiffonade-style (rolled and cut) and a handful of Parmesan cheese. Serve immediately. Another way I sometimes prepare it for myself is to slice it thin, broil with some Parmesan cheese until the zucchini is fork tender and the cheese is slightly browned. |

I've made the recipe Compumom mentioned, from Jain, I think! Delicious! Big hit here, too! I found this one online looking for a restaurant in NYC. Never did get to the restaurant yet but the recipe is great! and very easy! I don't exactly follow it! I just pour, no measuring! I don't bother to refrigerate it, just mix it all up in a bowl and serve! Nice light side dish! We love it! ZUCCHINI CARPACCIO 1 pound Zucchini Cut the Zucchini with a salamander or carefully with a knife into finely sliced penny-thin wafers, with the skin left on. In a bowl combine the olive oil (use a fruity olive oil with no bitterness or peppery taste) and the lemon juice. Evenly spread the zucchini slices across a 9 x 9 inch plate. Cover the plates with a plastic film and put in the refrigerator. Toast the pine nuts for a few minutes in a pan to slightly brown them and develop their flavor. Right before serving, take the plates out of the refrigerator, wash the zucchini with the lemon & oil dressing, season with a pinch of salt and freshly ground pepper. Spread 1.5 tablespoons of shaved parmesan cheese and 1 tablespoon of toasted pine nuts on each plate. |

Whatever you do, never turn down garden goodies, (it makes you appear too selective and you won't be considered when other produce becomes abundant) and don't sell zucchini your neighbor has given you at a yard sale! Your neighbor might see it and that might put an end to your friendship AND his garden gifts to you forever. You could, however, sell it at work as long as your neighbor doesn't know someone who works there too, or trade it to your friends for other things -- also as long as your neighbor does not know your friends. I have a friend who is a beautician. She told me the girl who works the chair next to her was talking with a customer about a person they both knew. She said, "I don't know how she has the time to garden, but every spring she brings me bags and bags of fresh lettuce." Well, you can guess the rest. It's a small world. LOL |

You know those monsters that hide under leaves until they're the size of BamBam's bats? I've used them in place of the pasta in lasagna . . . I'd slice them, roll in egg and cracker crumbs and fry, then layer in my favorite lasagna recipe and called it Zucchi-zanya. I had a dishwasher repairman show up once in the middle of this task and managed to unload several huge zucchini on him! SCORE!! Arlene |
These pancake/crepes of sol's are unvelievable!!!! Zucchini Pancakes (sol) 2 cups grated zucchini Serve with: 6˝ ounces double cream brie Preheat a frying pan over medium heat. Combine all pancake ingredients in a bowl, except for the water. Serve with double cream brie (or your favorite melting cheese), roasted tomatoes and chives. *Add all the black pepper you like, but use a light hand with the salt, as parmesan provides some saltiness. I normally add 1/8 teaspoon salt, and find it's plenty. Enjoy. Sol |

Each author independently extracted descriptive and quantitative information from the studies identified through MEDLINE, EMBASE and Web of Science. Data collection was limited to case-crossover studies as this design was developed specifically to address the problem of identifying triggers of acute events. Case-control and cohort studies were not included as they are not particularly suitable for identifying triggers of acute events. The individual studies tended to include more males than females, and patients in their 50's and 60's.
This research concluded that episodic physical activity and sexual activity are associated with an increase in the risk of heart attacks for a short window of time during and shortly after the activity. This association was less pronounced among persons with high levels of habitual physical activity. The authors make particular note that this study should not de-emphasize the importance of regular physical activity. Dr. Dahabreh writes, "Our findings should not be misinterpreted as indicating a net harm of physical or sexual activity; instead they demonstrate that these exposures are associated with a temporary short-term increase in the risk of acute cardiac events."

Unbiased Reviews by Real People
The Wildwood Convention Center is a relatively new center that caters to Trade Shows, Concerts, Sports-Spectaculars, and as a grand meeting place offering 8,675 total square feet of flexible meeting space. It's well positioned on the broad beaches of Wildwood New Jersey that held the honor of NJs Best Beach 2008.Wildwood Convention CenterMy wife and I spent a weekend in Wildwood New Jersey about a month ago for an event held at the Wildwood Convention Center. My wife has been there a few times for a Catholic Charismatic retreat weekend with youth from our church. This was my first time in attendance.The center has a large clean look to it. It's an attreactive building on the boardwalk with some limited parking that charges or not depending on the event. The boardwalk of the Wildwoods cross the entrance area of the convention center with a loudspeaker barking future events. Just down the boardwalk on both sides are shops and eateries that the summer masses flock too. There's camping on the beach and many amusement parks beckoning the kids to ride and spend extra dollars at the games. During the summer the Wildwoods do live up to the name "Wild". It's unbelievably crazy! ... tell ya the truth, it's not a place that attracts me. However, for the event I attended in October it was perfect! I'm posting a review of the Wildwoods soon.Just across the street are Motel/Hotels that cater to the summer crowds and afford rooms for those going to events at the Wildwood Convention Center. We stayed at the Oceanic Hotel that I can't recommend highly but was suitable for our use with a number of teens that joined us for the weekend.Our VisitBeing just across the street was a joy. Being there in October when all the summer masses were gone made it even better. The convention center's entrance has a number of steps and also ramps making it relatively easy for people bringing in product for events. Security manned the doors. The place was airy feeling with a roofing material allowing natural light to spill through. I didn't care for the large lighting fixtures used in the center. They tended to glare when dark rolled over the beaches. The sound in the convention center was excellent. We had a small group singing praise songs but I'm sure crowds sitting on the pull out seating would be rocking at a big name concert. I liked the overall feel of the place.The teens that were with us were in a different area of the center. The large rooms and adaptability of the place made it easy for them and us to meet before and after the events. A few vendors were set up inside the building in an area with floor to ceiling windows looking out on the beaches. The temperatures in the building were comfortable at the time we were there. Of course it is air conditioned for summer events and heated for the winter.Through the experience of the business I was in and all the Trade Shows we attended I could tell the main Exhibit Hall was designed well for them. The use of natural light and a comfortable temperatures along with well placed electrical boxes along the floor seemed to be well designed, The glaring lights that I complained about earlier would be quite suitable for Trade Show spaces.Restrooms were plentiful for our crowd that I would guess to be a couple of thousand. When this place is filled I would think there would be lines out the door of the restrooms. If anyone knows, please leave a comment at the end of this review. The men's restrooms were VERY clean, had modern facilities and were well stocked. The security and other people who ran the event were quite professional and with a friendly temperament.This is an entry into the VIII Lean & Mean W/OWOW!! Just across the street and the closest hotel to the Wildwood Convention Center is the Oceanic HotelAlas, I had trouble recommending it.

Tomorrow is not promised to anyone, young or old alike and today may be the last chance you get to hold your loved one tight. For if tomorrow never comes, you'll surely regret the day that you didn't take that extra time for a smile, a hug, or a kiss and you were too busy to grant someone, what turned out to be their one last wish. But just in case today is all I get, I'd like to say how much I love you and I hope we never forget.
Take the time and if tomorrow never comes you'll have no regrets about today.

New Revised Standard (NRS) | New International Version (NIV) |
25 Know therefore and understand: from the time that the word went out to restore and rebuild Jerusalem until the time of an anointed prince, there shall be seven weeks; and for sixty-two weeks it shall be built again with streets and moat, but in a troubled time. | 25 "Know and understand this: From the issuing of the decree to restore and rebuild Jerusalem until the Anointed One, the ruler, comes, there will be seven 'sevens,' and sixty-two 'sevens.' It will be rebuilt with streets and a trench, but in times of trouble. |
26 After the sixty-two weeks, an anointed one shall be cut off and shall have nothing, and the troops of the prince who is to come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary. Its end shall come with a flood, and to the end there shall be war. Desolations are decreed. | 26 After the sixty-two 'sevens,' the Anointed One will be cut off and will have nothing. The people of the ruler who will come will destroy the city and the sanctuary. The end will come like a flood: War will continue until the end, and desolations have been decreed. |
27 He shall make a strong covenant with many for one week, and for half of the week he shall make sacrifice and offering cease; and in their place shall be an abomination that desolates, until the decreed end is poured out upon the desolator." | 27 He will confirm a covenant with many for one 'seven.' In the middle of the 'seven' he will put an end to sacrifice and offering. And on a wing [of the temple] he will set up an abomination that causes desolation, until the end that is decreed is poured out on him. " |

As Grizzly and Bobcat football fans took their fight with ESPN to every corner they could think of -- and in every method they could dream up -- there was a sign Monday that the network might be reconsidering its stance against local TV broadcasts of Montana and Montana State's FCS playoff games Saturday.
One of the fans, Kristal Glass of Las Vegas, said she received an email from the president of Max Media of Montana, which owns stations that typically carry Montana State games during the regular season.
In it, Linda Gray informed Glass that Gray's contact at ESPN told her Monday, "ESPN is discussing the clearance on the local stations in Montana 'at the highest level.' "
ESPN paid $550 million for the broadcast rights to all NCAA championship events except men's basketball. However, it is offering coverage of most early round FCS games only on its Internet streaming service, ESPN3.
Most Montanans do not have access to it because their Internet service providers do not pay ESPN to carry it.
The resulting "blackout," as some fans in Montana have taken to calling it, has provoked a grassroots campaign to get ESPN to allow local stations to carry its feeds of Saturday's playoff games between Montana and Central Arkansas, and Montana State vs. New Hampshire.
The news that ESPN was discussing the issue was about the only thing Gray didn't post at an events page on Facebook that has galvanized Grizzly and Bobcat supporters.
"People might think it's in the bag, and that's not the case," said Glass, a Ronan native who is now a mortgage loan officer at a small bank in Las Vegas. "We want everyone to still keep fighting." The Facebook page, called "Petition to have ESPN Lift Blackouts of FCS Playoff Games," was started last Tuesday by Missoula businessman John Sterrett, who sent it out to the approximately 400 people he was friends with on Facebook at the time (he's added several more since creating the page).
In less than a week it has spread to more than 90,000 Facebook users, and was well on the way to passing the 23,000-mark by early Monday evening for the number of people who have "signed" it.
While there has been some argument among them about who the "bad" guy is in this -- ESPN, Internet service providers, the NCAA or others -- many have posted messages encouraging people to contact everyone from their congressmen to the NCAA to ESPN advertisers.
They've also been calling ESPN directly to voice their dissatisfaction.
"I'm sure several thousand have called ESPN already," Sterrett said Monday. "For the most part they don't get a real person -- they get a computer line where they're asked to state their concerns. But a few of them got through to somebody live, and they say they were told that ESPN is aware that many Montana fans are not happy."
They've gone so far as to study the NCAA's policies regarding television rights, and were tickled when they found what they believe is a gaping loophole:
"If Turner/CBS and/or ESPN do not activate their television rights to any round of an NCAA championship, the NCAA may elect to sell these rights for local syndication in exchange for a rights fee."
As far as Glass, Sterrett and many others are concerned, online streaming is not the same as a television broadcast, and therefore ESPN has not activated its television rights.
"The FCC," Sterrett said, "does not regulate Internet feeds as broadcasts."
"I don't know if it holds water legally," said Bob Hermes, general manager of KPAX-TV, which televises most UM regular-season games, "but it may cloud the issue."
The last word he had, Hermes said Monday, was that "ESPN plans on continuing to exercise its exclusive rights to hold the game on ESPN3."
His station has a long and good relationship with ESPN, Hermes said, and would like to carry the game, but does need some lead time to do so.
"More is better," Hermes said. "Every day that goes by makes it harder to accommodate."
Purchasing the rights involves a "substantial amount of money," he said, and KPAX needs time to sell advertising slots for a broadcast.
Glass, who usually watches UM games at Torrey Pines Pub, a neighborhood bar in Las Vegas which has been dubbed "Grizzlyville," said she has gone so far as to contact a law firm or two about possible legal action.
"Just making inquiries," she said. "I don't have that kind of money, but I'm not opposed to trying to encourage attorneys to take the case pro bono."
Another representative had done likewise, Glass said, and spoken to attorneys in Billings who think ESPN might be violating anti-trust laws by using the games to force Internet service providers to carry ESPN3.
Among her other online activities Monday, Glass posted a doctored photograph at the Facebook site that shows UM mascot Monte on his knees in the end zone -- and being pepper-sprayed by the campus policeman who famously pepper-sprayed peaceful protesters at the Occupy UC Davis event recently.
ESPN, the cutline facetiously claims, has hired Lt. John Pike to "take care of their Montana problem."
A small coalition of Grizzly and Bobcat fans who found Sterrett's petition have been spending several hours every day taking the fight to ESPN and others. In addition to Glass, they include Ryan Gage, Teresa Michalski, Alexandra Sophia, Edd Willey, Chelleay Treichel and Janet Frederick.
Some of them have also suggested they'll print 25,000 signs that say "Shame on ESPN" and distribute them to fans attending the game at Washington-Grizzly Stadium Saturday if their efforts to get the games televised locally aren't successful.
Greg Weitekamp, director of broadcasting for the NCAA, did not return a message from the Missoulian Monday for this story.

If you decide to side with Dragon, you'll be kidnapped, tossed out of a moving van, and dumped onto the streets of Seoul. Sounds good doesn't it? Dragon does offer something that the other factions do not, a chance to wander the narrow streets of Seoul and follow a creepy child in a raincoat. We don't make this stuff up, we're just telling you what we saw in the demo.
The weather may not be great, but if you want to get away from busy cities and towering buildings, this is the place to be.
Now that you've seen Seoul, let's take a look at some of the beasties you'll be fighting. Meet Mr. Pumpkin Man.
Hmm... boss fight?
We know looks don't mean everything but... yikes.
Each time we started a new game, we were thrown into this flashback. It gave us a chance to test out the controls, but what does this flashback really mean? What's going on? Why is my name Sarah?
One of the first real missions you'll receive, regardless of faction, is to find out what exactly is going on in the small town of Kingsmouth on Solomon Island. Warning: there will be zombies.
You should probably be looking for some protective gear at this point.
Instead of leveling, you get this. That's right, an ability wheel for you to choose what kind of skills you want to learn. None of this, level up stuff anymore. You can equip up to 7 active and 7 passive abilities, and some tie in with one another, giving yourself that extra boost so choose carefully!
Character customization and purchasing new clothes will play a big part in building your identity, along with the skills you unlock and learn.
We also got a quick look at the crafting/transcribing system in The Secret World. While we don't have anything to show you at this point, we do know that you'll be able to break down items and reassemble them into something useful. Stats are based on the types of material you use, and you need enough materials to fill out the shape of the item you want to make. For example, to create a hammer, you need to lay out the materials in the shape of a hammer.
We hope to have more details in the near future. The Secret World will be released June 19 on the PC.

THURMAN - The vacuum of leadership in the town of Thurman, which existed for the past several weeks after the former town supervisor and a board member abruptly resigned, has now been partially filled.
Several actions at the Aug. 17 town board meeting made the difference.
Relatively new board member Al Vasak, former athletic director at Warrensburg Central School, assumed the post as interim town supervisor.
Rebecca Hitchcock, 60, of Drexel Road in Thurman was appointed town board member by the remaining three council members in a unanimous vote, and she assumed one of the two empty seats. Hitchcock's appointment, effective through December, allows the board to now to decide issues they otherwise couldn't tackle in a month for lack of appropriate valid votes.
This is Hitchcock's first foray into politics. She's lived virtually her entire life in Thurman.
Her career has to date centered on office management, having worked for Adirondack Medicine and Partners Health plans from 1989 to 1999, followed by similar employment with the parent firm, Hudson Headwaters Health Network, plus work at Conifer Park Outpatient Clinic of Glens Falls.
Her career was cut short by a car crash in which she received serious injuries. Since then, she's recovered substantially, but lingering physical effects have blocked employment, she said.
Her career in office work, however, developed her attention to detail, she said, which should be useful in her new role as town board member. She'll be serving in this post until January 1, when a candidate - perhaps Hitchcock - is elected by the public in November to take office for a full term. Hitchcock is the current Republican candidate in that election.
Although she said she's not apt to make campaign promises, she intends to focus on town government finances.
"I want to help keep the budget under control, and see what we can do about containing taxes," Hitchcock said.
